I repeat... I do not have any idea if Obama is the Antichrist, and I am not asserting that he is. I am simply addressing the issue as it stands.
Senator Barack Obama has widely been circulated to be the Antichrist on the web, in political ads, and in several churches across the Country. This assertion is one that most people dismiss with a flip of the hand, and a turning of the cheek. For most Christians, it is not quite that easy.
When one considers the term Antichrist what do they think of? Charismatic? Check. World leader? Check. Hugely Popular? Check. Leader of men? Check. Capable of controlling a large number of people blindly? Check. Muslim descent? Check. Popular among multiple nations? Check. The list goes on...
Barack Obama being the Anti-Christ is not so far fetched to a Christian. We all are entitled to our beliefs, and Christians have that same right. If Christians wish to believe that Obama is the Antichrist, then this is a Christian's right.
The difference is that people have different views on what the Antichrist is. To the Christian, the Antichrist is not some fable from an old book. To a Christian, the Antichrist is as real as the air that they breathe. Of course, others believe in no God, other Gods, and everything in between. That is the non-believer's right as well.
Quite simply put, Barack Obama does fit the bill. This is not to say that Barack Obama is, in fact, the Antichrist. The point is, Obama is the most viable candidate in our present day. He is also not the first to come along.
At various times, their have been others. Hitler was thought to be the Antichrist. Saddam was thought to be the Antichrist. Elvis was thought to be the Antichrist after already being dead for Heaven's sakes. Obama is simply the latest one to acquire the label.
Obama will rise or fall based on the decisions of voters, and some of those voters are Christians. That is the simple bottom line to the whole "Obama is the Antichrist" issue. Christians have their opinions too.
Much of the Obama/Antichrist is due to the clear affiliations with sordid characters that pepper Obama's past. The whole fiasco with Wright, Ayers, and others have put Obama's motivations into question. People are judged on some level by the company they keep.
The end result of this is that Christians believe that the Antichrist is coming. Barack Obama fits the profile in many ways. It stands to reason, then, that Christians will make that connection on some levels. If they believe in their heart that this man is the Antichrist, then that is a right afforded to them by our Constitution.

Post a CommentI have a long explanation of the meaning of the Lottery numbers the Marks of the Beast of Obama who is the Antichrist.

The Antichrist must be unmasked. The Revelation of the Marks of the Beast sent by heaven will do that.
Our only job is to spread it everywhere.
Take this and spread it to the world.
Chris - A shame you did not read the article before commenting. It is true that Obama has a Muslim in the Family. This does not mean that he is Muslim. Go back and read the article. I agree that he is not many of these things. Why do people always assume they know what the article says without actually reading it? LOL.
I stopped reading when you said "Muslim Descent" - check.
There's nothing muslim about a guy who goes to a Christian church and announces Jesus as his lord & savior. Church of Christ in Chicago to be exact. People don't understand that he has economic policies and motives that mimic FDR.
Let's be honest - people are uncomfortable with him because he's something different, not like all the other presidents in the past (completely white)
Interesting topic. I hadn't thought of it before, but now you have me thinking about it. Great article!
according to the american public, EVERY president is the antichrist, lol. ronald wilson reagan = 666....and there's an entire website about GW being the antichrist. watch, it'll really turn out to be clay aiken, or something, LOL!!!!
Zach.... If Reverand Wright is your definition of Christian, then no.... It does not count in my opinion.
You say . . .

What about the fact that he's Christian and has been a Christian his whole life? Shouldn't that play a factor in the other direction?
Catchy title, I personally think that McCain is the antichrist. Ha, not really but I saw and heard Obama personally and shook his hand, I will vote for him hands down over Mccain the war monger.
1 John 2 tells us that many Antichrists have already come, and that "those who deny the Son and the Father" are the Antichrist.
The dude gives me the eebie jeebies. Im not voting for him.
